Characterisation and calibration of weak 44Ti sources for astrophysical applications

Schumann, D.; Schmidt, K.; Bemmerer, D.

Five Ti-44 calibration sources supplied by Paul-Scherrer-Institute have been characterized concerning their activity distribution as well as the absolute activities. Now, calibration sources for nuclear astrophysics experiments with an uncertainty of +/-1.2% are available

Keywords: Ti-44; supernova; alpha-rich freezeout; nuclear astrophysics; activation; low-level counting
